Disclaimer: I don't own anything

She was a princess locked in a tower

Her champion was a king ready to conquer

He fought a dragon and banished her fears

Her heart was full of praises but they fell on deaf ears

He was blind and she was mute

And her affection seemed to bear no fruit

He would protect her to the end

But she needed more than just a friend

He was so careful as he guarded her heart

And he hid the pain well when they were apart

She was the source of his strength and power

And he yearned for her more with every hour

Her happiness was all he wanted

But his heart was dark and forever haunted

He kept his distance to keep her safe

But his distanced burned and left her chafe

They shared secrets and a spiritual bond

He would smile and her heart would respond

Their friends and memories were a tether

But kings and princesses could never be together
